Can you balance out Finnish defense of two separate isthmuses vs Soviet Red Army
Features Finnish Defense
Finnish Defense 1944 is a classic turn based strategy game which takes place on the WWII Eastern Front in the summer of 1944.
From Joni Nuutinen: by a wargamer for the wargamers since 2011Can you lead the Finnish forces brilliantly enough to stop the massive Red Army offensive which aimed to knock Finland out of the Second World War?
The years 1942-1944 were quiet on the Finnish part of the Eastern Front: Soldiers did wood whittling, few saw combat, wrong places of the front line were fortified -- all this while Red army was taking lessons in modern warfare from Wehrmacht.
When the Soviet strike finally fell in the summer of 1944, it was a huge well practiced attack by a thoroughly trained army with unprecedented artillery barrages - against Finns who had just extended summer holiday leaves.
Game ends when you either control all the Victory Points or after you have lost control of all the VPs (you held on as long as possible).FEATURES:+ Historical accuracy: Campaign mirrors the historical setup.+ Thanks to in-built variation and the games smart AI technology, each game provides a unique war gaming experience.+ Competitive: Measure your strategy game skills against others fighting for the Hall of Fame top spots.+ Supports casual play: Easy to pick up, leave off, continue later.+ Challenging: Crush your enemy quickly and earn the bragging rights on the forum.+ Settings: Various options are available to alter the look of the gaming experience: Change difficulty level, hexagon size, Animation speed, choose icon set for units (NATO or REAL) and cities (Round, Shield, Square, block of houses), decide what is drawn on the map, and much more.+ Tablet friendly strategy game: Automatically scales the map for any screen size/resolution from small smartphones to tablets, while settings allow you to fine tune hexagon and font sizes.+ Good AI: Instead of just attacking on direct line towards the target, the AI opponent balances between strategic goals and smaller tasks like encircling nearby units.In order to be a victorious general, you must learn to coordinate your attacks in two ways.
First, as adjacent units give support to an attacking unit, keep your units in groups in order to gain local superiority.
Secondly, it is rarely the best idea to use brute force when it is possible to encircle the enemy and cut off its supply lines instead.Privacy Policy (full text on website and app menu): No account creation is possible, the made-up username used in the Hall of Fame listings is not tied to any account and does not have password.

In the case of crash the following non-personal data is sent (vie web-form using ACRA library) to allow quick fix: Stack trace (code which failed), Name of the App, Version number of the App, and Version number of the Android OS.
The app only requests the permissions it needs to function.Conflict-Series by Joni Nuutinen has offered highly rated Android-only strategy board games since 2011, and even the first scenarios are still actively updated.
The campaigns are based on the time-tested gaming mechanics TBS (turn-based strategy) enthusiasts are familiar with from both the classic PC war games and legendary tabletop board games.
I want to thank the fans for all the well thought-out suggestions over the years which have allowed these campaigns to improve at a much higher rate than what any solo indie developer could dream of.
If you have advice on how to improve this board game series please use email, this way we can have a constructive back and forth chat without the limits of the stores comment system.
In addition, because I have huge number of projects on multiple stores, it’s just not sensible to spend handful of hours each day going through hundreds of pages spread all over the Internet to see if there is a question somewhere -- just send me an email and I will get back to you.
Thanks for understanding!+ Minefields requested by Generals/Commanders now arrive with one turn delay+ Assigning replacements (+1 HP) to a unit is a bit easier (3 adjacent enemy hexagons allowed, but the severity of enemy-blocks-replacements depends on the Difficulty Level+ HOF relocated to web (see dev-log for details)+ Setting: HOF: Send scores to online database (ON/OFF switch)+ Setting: Turn major developer alerts ON/OFF+ AI: Improvements in front line coherence

What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"The campaigns are the best strategy mobile games that i have found to date, but here are couple ideas for improvements: -more in-depht explanation on the core combat mechanics, preferably with the exact numbers avalible -why not also make the other side playable, altough it would be likely pretty easy -with this huge amount of different apps, maybe you could merge them into one app. with one app the algorithm would perhaps favour you a bit more"

"The much forgotten 2nd Finnish campaign. Try and keep the Russians at bay with an under prepared rather lethargic Finnish army. This is not an easy game, but it is excellent. Good job Joni keep em coming."
